Finally!
A Community That Gets It.
Welcome to The NP Collaborative—the private community where Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners connect, grow, and support each other without the overwhelm, competition, or noise.
Because you weren't meant to figure this all out alone.
“The meaningful work  we love shouldn’t be this isolating.”
Three months ago, I was scrolling through another generic healthcare provider Facebook group...
Watching post after post about challenges I couldn’t relate to made me realize how isolating this field can be… even online.
Problems that had nothing to do with the emotional weight of psychiatric care... The unique pressures of prescriptive authority... Or the isolation that comes with carrying other people's mental health in your hands every single day.
And that's when it hit me.
Where were all the Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners?
Where was the community for those of us who understand what it's like to...
→ build a private practice while still figuring out our own finances?
→ who want to do good work but are constantly battling insurance demands, endless documentation, and the slow creep of burnout.
→ Feel the weight of being "the expert" when you're still figuring things out yourself.
→ Love this calling deeply... but feel drained by the weight of it all.
That day, I decided something had to change.
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners are doing this beautiful, hard work in isolation. Â
Here’s what I know about you:
You chose psychiatry to make a real difference in mental health. You care deeply about your patients and you’re genuinely good at what you do.
But somewhere along the way, the work started to feel lonely.
Friends don’t understand why it’s so draining. Family thinks you just talk to people all day. Even colleagues in other fields can’t relate to the unique demands of psychiatric care.
The truth is... most people don't get what we do.
Most people don’t see what you carry... the emotional labor, the clinical complexity, the balance of holding space for others while protecting your own wellbeing.
And that isolation? It's exhausting.
Because when you're helping everyone else process their stress, anxiety, and life challenges...
Who's helping you process yours?
You Deserve a Community  That Actually Understands
Imagine walking into a room where everyone just... gets it.
Where you don't have to explain why certain cases stay with you. Where people understand the unique pressure of prescriptive authority. Where you can celebrate wins, share struggles, and grow professionally... without judgment or competition. Where burnout isn't something you hide... it's something you heal from together.
That's why I built The NP Collaborative.
This Community  Is for You If...
✧ You're a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner feeling isolated in your role and craving genuine peer connection
✧ You're tired of trying to figure everything out alone—whether it's clinical decisions, career moves, or work-life balance

✧ You're facing burnout or compassion fatigue and need support from people who truly understand
